Brief Description
Ink wash painting of figures on a bridge over a waterfall in a misty mountain landscape
Detailed Description
A circular ink wash painting depicts a mountainous landscape with figures, mounted on a larger, light beige sheet of paper. In the lower center, a waterfall cascades over dark, rocky formations into a turbulent stream. A small wooden bridge spans the top of the waterfall, where two robed figures stand, looking towards the falling water. To their left, a third figure walks along a path at the base of a steep, tree-covered mountain. Mountains rise dramatically on both sides, featuring dark, dense foliage and trees, particularly on the left. Mist or clouds obscure the upper parts of the mountains and the background, creating a sense of depth. The painting is rendered in shades of black, grey, and white on a light brown fabric or paper ground. Outside the circular painting, on the surrounding light beige paper, several inscriptions and seals are present. Along the right edge, vertical black calligraphic text reads: "有奇氣亂沉著輕宛之獨". In the upper right corner, a vertical light brown strip of paper is affixed, bearing vertical black text that reads: "宋馬遠觀瀑圖". Multiple red square seals are present, some within the circular painting and others on the surrounding paper, including one in the lower right and two stacked on the left edge.
